Up for sale this little ultra wide in pentax K wide.
Serial is 99106431, so I guess it's Cosina made.
Optical condition is at least very good, with no marks and just some little dust visible inside.
The body has seen some usage: as you can see from the second pic some of the markings of the feet focus scale are a bit worn out, but nothing serious.
It's extremely tiny for being such a wide lens (it would fit inside a mir 20, for example), and, in my opinion, it's a very good match for a mirrorless camera due to its compactness.

From the quick snaps i took with my nex I'd say it's good, even if not exceptional.
Center sharpness is good, a little less on the corner especially at wider apertures.
Color rendition looked above average to me, and I didn't see any evident CA.
All in all, it's a good little lens, a good deal for its price - imho Wink

Comes with original front cap and ricoh branded rear cap

Asking euro 65 + shipping, but I'll consider close offers: drop me a PM if interested.



[EDIT]
I forgot the pictures Embarassed

I have the same lens badged as a Cosina 20mm and it's really very good for a budget priced ultra-wide. Works fine on my Lumix G1 anbd my Leica M8 Very Happy
